May 8, 2008

The International Paper (IP) Pensacola Mill in Cantonment will host a community open house this evening from 5:00 until 7:00. IP will kick off mill tours following the completion of its product line conversion.

The event is free to the public and will take place in front of the mill’s administrative offices at 375 Muscogee Road in Cantonment.

Cat Country 98.7 will broadcast live from the event, eat! restaurant will serve guests, and Harvesters Federal Credit Union will be on hand with information about membership services and benefits. Children’s activities include a bounce house and slide, coloring activities, and a visit from costumed characters the Cat Country Cat and Pinelope Tree.

Adults and children 12 and older can join one of six tours lasting 30 minutes each beginning at 5:15 p.m. Reservations are required, and no child care will be provided for children under 12. Details on what to wear and other tour information will be given at the time of the reservation.

The deadline for reservations is today at noon.

Tours will show guests both machines the mill operates to produce lightweight linerboard, which is used to make cardboard boxes, and fluff pulp, used to make baby diapers, feminine hygiene and adult incontinence products.
